It is not an error. I submitted the patch. Userspace requires a 32-bit kernel of atleast 2.4.17, and a 64-bit kernel of atleast 2.4.19. The 64-bit code has some orthogonal issues that took time to fix. Both could be made to require 2.4.19, and infact the upstream glibc patch set the requirement to 2.4.19. c. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
